Ontario Resident Injured in Florida Car Accident - What are My Rights?

Are you from Ontario and injured while vacationing in Florida?  Although no one ever expects to be involved in an accident while on vacation, this happens very often.  Each year, many Canadians from Ontario are involved in car accidents, motorcycle accidents, boating accidents, and other injury accidents while vacationing in Florida.  

While an accident in another country can be extremely stressful, Ontario residents will often be able to bring claims to recover their losses and obtain compensation for their pain and suffering if the accident occurred in Florida.  Claims on behalf of Ontario residents injured in Florida are generally more complex because of the interplay between Ontario and Florida law and the various insurance claims that may be applicable.   As such, it is extremely important to obtain legal advice from a lawyer with experience in this area of law. 

As a previous resident and trial lawyer in the State of Florida, I leverage this experience in representing Canadians that have been seriously injured in Florida.  Claims involving Ontario residents injured in Florida are unique and often involve claims being coordinated in the United States and Canada.  Each of these claims will impact and effect the outcome of the other and, therefore, it is important to seek advice before making decisions that can affect your future.
